Institutions

Institutions with the most laureates

Universities, institutes, and laboratories ranked by how many laureates are recorded against them.

An affiliation is recorded for 2,642 of 2,721 awards. This ranks what is recorded, which is not the same as the full picture, and affiliations are those held at the time of the award rather than a whole career. A winner can have one primary and several additional affiliations recorded for an award.
